carolineshannon

Weddings are big business. There are approximately 115,000 weddings occurring each day around the world and 2.4 million weddings occur in the United States alone every year. The average guest spends $500 to attend a wedding—excluding plane tickets.

For richer or poorer need not apply here -- you better have some cash on hand!
